- originally based on the Lem backend
- added externs to some of the library files and tests
- added wildcard to extern valspecs in parser
- added Type_check.get_val_spec_orig to return the valspec with the
function's original names for bound type variables
Note that most of the tests will fail currently

This commit primarily changes how existential types are bound in
letbindings. Essentially, the constraints on both numeric and
existentially quantified types are lifted into the surrounding type
context automatically, so in
```
val f : nat -> nat
let x = f(3)
```
whereas x would have had type nat by default before, it'll now have
type atom('n) with a constraint that 'n >= 0 (where 'n is some fresh
type variable). This has several advantages: x can be passed to
functions expecting an atom argument, such as a vector indexing
operation without any clunky cast functions - ex_int, ex_nat, and
ex_range are no longer required. The let 'x = something() syntax is
also less needed, and is now only really required when we specifically
want a name to refer to x's type. This changes slightly the nature of
the type pattern syntax---whereas previously it was used to cause an
existential to be destructured, it now just provides names for an
automatically destructured binding. Usually however, this just works
the same.
Also:
- Fixed an issue where the rewrite_split_fun_constr_pats rewriting
pass didn't add type paramemters for newly added type variables in
generated function parameters.
- Updated string_of_ functions in ast_util to reflect syntax changes
- Fixed a C compilation issue where elements of union type
constructors were not being coerced between big integers and 64-bit
integers where appropriate
- Type annotations in patterns now generalise, rather than restrict
the type of the pattern. This should be safer and easier to handle
in the various backends. I don't think any code we had was relying
on this behaviour anyway.
- Add inequality operator to lib/flow.sail
- Fix an issue whereby top-level let bindings with annotations were
checked incorrectly

Added library for simple integer arithmetic functions in lib/arith.sail
WIP TeX file for formatting latex output included in lib/sail.tex
Fixes for bugs in sail_lib

Add support for short-ciruiting and/or. I forgot about this in the
original ANF specification and not having it causes problems for the
ARM spec.

Can now compile things like early returns. The same approach should
work for exception handling as well. Once that's in place, just need
to work a bit more on getting union types to work + the library of
builtins, then we should be able to compile and run some of our specs
via C. Also added some documentation in comments for the general
approach taken when compiling (need many more though).

Also refactored the hand written ARM prelude and pulled out some common functionality into files in sail/lib
